January 2017- February 2017

We enjoyed an icy snow mix back in January.  Holly's Hill made for great sledding.

Several bluebirds came to our yard that day.

Watch out, Hampton!

This baby goat was born on January 19, 2017, and we got to the Strauss' within an hour of his birth.

Field trip day- Museums in Raleigh

The sloth came down while we were there.

We took a two day field trip with Webb to Kill Devil Hills. He had to work but we were able to squeeze in some fun outings.  

Jockey's Ridge...it was so cold that we had the place to ourselves.  

Jackson, way off in the distance.

One of Sawyer's favorite animals.

Zoo field trip- this is always my favorite exhibit.

Celebrating our 20th at Second Empire, which is on the same street as our first date which also happens to be the same street where we got married.
